West of Mpls MN about 50 miles on Hwy 12
Your kids might be allowed to enroll in school with the "birth certificate" from the hospital that has their footprints on it (which could be interpreted as a hospital record of birth by local school staff I suppose) but your local DMV won't accept it as proof of citizenship if they are adhering to Federal law.

AI overview

While a birth certificate is often required, schools usually accept alternatives like passports, baptismal certificates, hospital records, or immigration documents if the original is unavailable.
